Georgia Bill Bans Implanted Chips

Nothing politicians love more than solving problems that don’t exist. Testimony from one woman:

“I’m also one of the people in Georgia who has a microchip,” the woman said. Microchips, the woman began, “infringe on issues that are fundamental to our very existence. Our rights to privacy, our rights to bodily integrity, the right to say no to foreign objects being put in our body.” She spoke of the “right to work without being tortured by co-workers who are activating these microchips by using their cell phones and other electronic devices.” She continued. “Microchips are like little beepers. Just imagine, if you will, having a beeper in your rectum or genital area, the most sensitive area of your body. And your beeper numbers displayed on billboards throughout the city. All done without your permission,” she said.

It was not funny, and no one laughed. “Ma’am, did you say you have a microchip?” asked state Rep. Tom Weldon (R-Ringgold).

“Yes, I do. This microchip was put in my vaginal-rectum area,” she replied. Setzler, the sponsoring lawmaker, sat next to the witness – his head bowed. “You’re saying this was involuntary?” Weldon continued.
